2nd time testing, 265q, almost 3 hours, and a good pop up...I think

[Emmi7]

So today I took the NCLEX-RN! I was scheduled for 12:30p and I arrived at 11:30a, they allowed me to begin at around 11:45a. I got all 265 questions, last test I believe I got 180. Anyway had mostly prioritization, delegation, and infection control questions, I got 4 or 5 ECG questions, no math, a lot of pharm (including herbal meds) and 2 or 3 drag and drop. As far as SATA I had quite a few but I didn't actually keep track.

Ok so I got to my car at around 3:20p and tried to do the trick, it kept saying "Ready for Delivery" so I pulled off and then drove to another parking lot down the street (idk why pretty sure my brain wasn't working) finally it said "Delivery Successful" & I tried to re-register and I got the "Our records indicate that you have recently scheduled your exam..." pop up! I am scared to become too excited because I read that there is a 2nd scoring and people's good pop up was not accurate. I'm anxious to know how long I will have to wait since I tested on a Friday!

I took my test today but the popup I get different pop up it say Our records indicate that you have recently schedule this exam . Another registration cannot be made at this time" but it doesnt tell me to contact the board.. is this the good pop up or is it the bad pop up?

The "good popup" is some variation of "you have recently scheduled this exam... another registration cannot be made at this time" and it won't let you pay for another exam attempt.

i took my nclex today and I got the same pop up but it didnt say to contact the board.. is this a different good pop up? or should I worry

[jannelleh]

so that mean as long as I dont get the c/c screen I have a pretty good chance that I passed even if it doesnt have the "contact the board " on it?

[akulahawkRN, ADN, RN, EMT-P]

Yes. As long as the popup doesn't indicate that your results are on hold, and it's telling you that you've recently scheduled an exam and it won't let you pay because "another registration cannot be made at this time" is the good popup. If that's what you got, you've likely passed. Give it about 24 hours from when you finished the exam to be reasonably sure that your exam has been scored twice. It's the 2nd scoring that is definitive as to pass/fail. Only the people that are very, very close to the pass/fail line have a chance for their results to flip. Those that fail will likely have "near passing standard" on their Candidate Performance Report because they really were very close to passing. Likewise those that got the CC screen at first and later passed, they were very close to failing...

My pop up didn't tell me to contact the board either and 48 hours later I got my quick results PASS!! The next day at around 9am the state posted my license!
